One of the most historic studios is closing down. Unfortunately it was dead long ago. Fuck EA

      Bioware management doesn’t get a pass for mismanagement of Anthem development just because EA is involved. EA bought Bioware in October 2007.

      In that time before Anthem they released:
      Mass Effect - 2007
      Dragon Age: Origins - 2009
      Mass Effect 2 - 2010
      Dragon Age II - 2011
      Star Wars: The Old Republic - 2011
      Mass Effect 3 - 2012
      Dragon Age: Inquisition - 2014
      Mass Effect: Andromeda - 2017

      Are you trying to claim that EA didn’t interfere until we got to Anthem? Or even that it didn’t interfere until the last few years before? Because that doesn’t seem likely. If they were going to, they would have from the beginning.

        Nope. That they interfered as soon as they could. Only DA1 and ME1 are nigh universally heralded as great.

        I wonder why that might be…
